You completely forgot The Scarlet Witch and Vision.

 

I highly expect most of the characters will come back. Dr. Strange already saw the only way they could defeat Thanos and that was why he surrendered the Time Stone. I highly expect we’ll see Tony Stark either die or retire in the sequel from the way Strange kept apologizing and saying “it was the only way.”

Imagine the PTSD that Dr. Strange must have suffered watching them all die 14million times..... I mean... I just seen it twice in the cinema and I can barely take it!

The important thing to remember is that he has no emotional attachment to the Avengers. That’s why it was completely out of character when he broke his oath and sacrificed the Time Stone to save Stark’s life - that alone should have tipped most viewers off that he has an end game planned and he was playing Thanos. I highly expect we’ll see that in Infinity War 2.

Thanos had the reality stone, he could create a reality around Dr. Strange where by the Time stone simply didn't function the way he would expect it to, it's why he wasn't even wearing it during the encounter but had teleported it elsewhere.

Strange would have seen many instances of the 14million potential futures where he tried to use the stone against Thanos and failed and was killed doing so... think about it, the way he surrendered the stone every death there was done by the Soul stone power of Thanos there by storing those people within the stone, if he had fought until Thanos killed some of them then submitted and gave him the stone those people who were killed would not be restored.

He could have just surrendered the stone without a fight then. Why go through the hassle of fighting Thanos? And isn’t the power of the reality stone just illusionary? Because otherwise he could easily have obtained the time stone.

He used the Time Stone prior to the battle. He knew what the only positive outcome was to beat Thanos. And giving Thanos the Stone right away not only would have given Thanos more time, but it would also make him doubt Doctor Strange. Strange had to distract him and make his actions believable otherwise Thanos would have probably realized he needed to use the Time Stone to see what Strange saw.
